Well, here we go
again! You can tell its December by the
occasional nasty mood swings on the LD lists.
And it's only gonna get worse!
It's hard to
imagine why, butt, some of the riders live where it's frozen solid. Their motors have been "winterized"
(a very scary word). It's a process akin
to embalming where fluids are changed and the life force is removed and placed
on a bench with a Battery Tender on it.
All these guys are just grumpier then hell and can be found hunched over
their little computers, wearing ear muffs and fingerless gloves and peckin' away. The
"sit here, twist that" aggression is now directed solely at the
little keyboard and what ever pops up on the screen. They're probably typing like they ride . . .
some smooth and effortless . . . others
herky-jerky, pecking all over the place.
All the while they're mumbling, snortin' and
sending each message off with a "smack" of the SEND NOW key yelling
"Stuff this up yur candy ass 1800cc's and smoke
it." Then muttering "If I
can't ride, nobody's gonna get the last word on me!" =:o
Another third can
only get out on a rare good day. Some
screw little metal studs into their tires and shoes for traction. And they ride till they can't take the pain
any longer and they're always in danger of breaking off a very blue finger or
black toe. Butt, just knowing they can
still ride puts them into a moderately civil disposition. :^|
While the rest of
us . . . well . . . life is good. Ride
every day or at least every wee
And so we have it .

Tavern
899 Guadalupe
Street
or Highway
Guadalupe,
California 93434
Phone: 805-343-2211
GPS: N 34° 58.169'; W120° 34.401
This is a real, genuine
"Santa Maria Style BBQ" steak house.
The Far Western's claim to fame is their "Bull's Eye Steak"
which is a prime cut rib eye steak.
This is not banquet food. Unlike many restaurants that require a
prepaid guarantee and a limited group menu, we are ordering off the regular
menu and each steak is prepared as ordered.
There will be one check per table.
Please be aware that service may
be a little slower under these conditions.
Northern California LD folks,
this is half way between Orange County and the Bay Area! 225+ miles one way! Not even a full tank for most of you guys.
It's the perfect end-of-the-year ride.
